august 23

He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things.

Romans 8:32

What exactly are these "things" Paul is talking about?

I think we are going to have to camp out here for a bit, and see what we can dig up.

For today, consider this: Paul uses the words "all things" four verses earlier.

And we know that in ALL THINGS God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

Let's marinate on these two ALL THINGS verses today. Verse 32 talks about gifts God wants to give us. Verse 28 talks about (at least we usually use this verse to talk about) suffering. Gifts and suffering. God wants to use ALL of Both.

More tomorrow.
